Covelo - the Original Rooms and Suites

Covelo …The original rooms , accommodation was in an excellent location , close to all the local amenities and attractions. The local bus depot was just around the corner and within easy walking distance. The cobblestone street itself had lots of bars ,restaurants , bakeries and shops, and is in fact , over 1,000 years old. The accommodation was very well presented. It was spotless clean and had all the facilities that would be needed for our short stay. The room was cleaned on a regular basis and toiletries and towels replaced. The small balcony allowed us to sit outside with our coffee in the morning, and enjoy a glass of wine outside in the evening. Our host Joao greeted us when we arrived. He was very friendly and informative. He spent some time with us, highlighting the local activities, places of interest and recommending local bars and restaurants. Nothing was too much trouble for Joao. We would most definitely go back to Amarante, we were very happy with our room, and would also stay in the same accommodation . We found that not only was the accommodation reasonably priced, but the same must be said for everything else in the city, including the food and the wine.

Classy Covelo Covelo-Original is exactly what a small guesthouse should be. Our stay was perfect. The Covelo is in the heart of old town and steps away from restaurants and just over the bridge is the religious centre. The room had everything needed (fridge, kettle, coffeemaker, all of which aren’t common in a POR room). The bed was incredibly comfortable and the building has been renovated and modernized yet maintains both original and quirky charm. Staff are amazing and they go the extra step providing handy local info. They even go so far as providing a WhatsApp contact should help be required “after hours”. I highly recommend The Covelo, one of the best guesthouses I have ever visited.

Such a lovely property beautifully renovated.

A gem in the heart of Amarante! We really enjoyed our stay. A very modern hotel that is very tastefully decorated. Our room was very comfortable for 2 people. The location in the centre of Amarante was perfect. Deborah was an exceptional host, very friendly and very helpful. We would book again!

Great location. Good communication. Room had a small outside seating area which would have been great to use in finner weather. Breakfast at the cafe was very good. Room was good value for money. The person who checked us in was helpful and informative.
